At Container King we convert containers into fully functioning offices which can then be delivered to the site. The result: A highly affordable, cost effective office space which is conveniently located onsite. The use of containers in this manner has become a popular choice for business owners and industry professionals working in the construction, mining, development, commercial, oil and gas, and government and municipal sectors.
Site office containers are available in two formats, namely basic and corporate style. It up to you which package you choose. Your choice will, more than likely, be determined by factors such as the length of time you will be spending onsite on a daily basis, the duration of the project and if you require the office space for meetings and executive planning sessions. If you will be using the office frequently for the above reasons and envision it acting as a secondary command post, then it is undoubtedly more advantageous to select the corporate styling option.
A corporate style office container can be equipped with all the necessary facilities which you would find in your standard corporate office. Heaters and air-conditioners can be installed, along with shelving, desks, telephones, internet connections, data solutions, tiles and carpets. These office containers can be wired to with power outputs to run electrical appliances and can even include restrooms. Ultimately, the corporate styling option provides a more comfortable working environment which is suited to projects which have a longer duration, or if the office has to accommodate various types of personnel.
At Containerking we have taken the next logical step in container sales, and we are optimising the advantages of container conversions into several different mobile applications. Apart from the mobility of a converted container, it also offers instant and secure solutions for whatever requirements you may have. If it can be constructed with bricks and mortar, it can be containerised at a fraction of the cost and time.
